No, it's the other way around... I'd rather use the pcn driver, since I get dramatically better performance using it. My problem is that I'm seeing a lot of collisions with both the le and pcn driver, which may or may not be an OpenBSD problem. >> Is this normal and/or acceptable?

The other machines on the same ESX host don't seem to show any problems, but this is the only OpenBSD guest.
